Looks like it has different wood. Besides that I cant find and info on what the diff is.

I THINK the GP comes with a slant brake and a bayonet lug. I know the WASR 10 does not have these, as I own one.

I own a GP and had a muzzle nut and neutered gas block

Maybe Century just puts on whatever they have? Or maybe my memory is bad. I thought I saw ads for WASR10 GPs that said the rifles came with a bayonet. I didn't pay much attention though. I already had mine and I've never had to use a bayonet. Pop cans and paper targets rarely charge when wounded!

As far as I can tell from mine, Century is incompetant anyway, so nothing would surprise me.

GP's are WASR10 that were converted back to pre-ban configuration (bayo lug, threaded barrel, muzzle brake) when the ban went off. Most have bayonets with them now.

Thanks, how did you come accross this info? One of my local dealers had no idea what it meant. They didnt seem to know much about Aks.

I have noticed that most GPs come with an accessory kit.

I am an informed dealer, I ask my distributors questions.
Yeah they have a bayonet, mag pouch, 2-30rd mags, sling, cleaning kit, oil bottle, and bayo frog.

Wish I had some of those around here.

Thanks again.

The way it was explained to me by another  informed dealer,  is that the GP is Century's product code for G-2 trigger (G) and pistol grip configuration or pre-ban (P).  My GP seems to fit this bill, as it is in preban config, with a G-2 trigger already installed for slap free AK clone fun.

+1 on it being nice to have an informed dealer around, who will ask questons of a distributer/importer.

Is it possible they just use whatever when they build WASR's?  My GP marked receiver came with no bayonet lug or accessory kit and the muzzle had a nut over 14X1 lh threads.   The sheetmetal mag holders were terrible in quality too, but Im in the process of fixing all of these.  (Im using this as a chance to learn how to work with this craptastic peice before attacking my own build)
